The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s activism around mental health and racial justice has been honoured by the Robert F Kennedy Human Rights organisation.
They took home the Ripple of Hope award at the gala, a title given to those who have demonstrated “an unwavering commitment to social change and worked to protect and advance equity, justice and human rights” according to RFKHR. Previous winners of the award include the then vice president Joe Biden, Bono, Hillary Clinton and George Clooney.
In a statement, Harry and Meghan said: “Our hope with this award is to inspire a new generation of leadership in the arts, where diverse up-and-coming talent have a platform to have their voices heard and their stories told.“The values of the RFK Foundation and The Archewell Foundation are aligned in our shared belief of courage over fear and love over hate.
“They’ve stood up, they’ve talked about racial justice and they’ve talked about mental illness in a way that was incredibly brave,” she told US outlet“For Meghan to get out there on national television and normalise discussion of mental health, at this point, is incredibly important and very brave.
